TEACHING AND ASSESSING SPEAKING PERFORMANCE THROUGH ANALYTIC SCORING APPROACH
Keywords:
Speaking, analytic scoring approach, holistic scoring approachAbstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether the analytic reporting approach would have a greater impact on improving English language learners' verbal skills. The two groups, the analytic group, and the holistic group, were compared in terms of the test results from the analytic scoring approach and holistic scoring approach respectively. Furthermore, the study revealed that students were more than willing to adopt an analytical scoring method for teaching and assessment of speaking skills.
